The High Court of London decided this Tuesday to allow the Australian journalist Julian Assange to continue appealing his case in the United Kingdom. The judges have asked the US to give more guarantees about how Assange would be tried on its territory.

The case was one of the largest leaks of confidential information in modern history. It began in 2010 when the website Wikileaks, founded by Julian Assange, published thousands of classified U.S. government documents. The documents revealed information about US military, diplomatic and intelligence operations.
